Numbers 31

1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,

2 "Avenge the children of Israel for the Midianites. Afterward you shall be gathered to your people."

“मिद्यानीहरूले इस्राएलीहरूलाई जे गरेका थिए, त्यसको निम्ति बद्ला ले । त्यो काम गरेपछि तँ मर्ने छस् र तेरा मानिसहरूसँग मिल्न जाने छस् ।”

3 Moses spoke to the people, saying, "Arm men from among you for the war, that they may go against Midian, to execute the LORD's vengeance on Midian.

त्यसैले मोशाले मानिसहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरूका केही मानिसहरूलाई सुसज्‍जित पार ।

4 Of every tribe one thousand, throughout all the tribes of Israel, you shall send to the war."

तिनीहरू मिद्यानीहरूको विरुद्ध युद्ध लड्न जाऊन् र यसमाथि परमप्रभुको बद्ला लिऊन् । इस्राएलका हरेक कुलले युद्धको निम्ति एक हजार सिपाही पठाउनुपर्छ ।”

5 So there were delivered, out of the thousands of Israel, a thousand of every tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.

त्यसैले इस्राएलका हजारौँ पुरुषमा हरेक कुलबाट एक हजार जना अर्थात् युद्धको निम्ति बाह्र हजार सशस्‍त्र मानिस दिइयो ।

6 Moses sent them, one thousand of every tribe, to the war, them and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the vessels of the sanctuary and the trumpets for the alarm in his hand.

त्यसपछि मोशाले तिनीहरूलाई पुजारी एलाजारका छोरा पीनहासको साथमा पवित्र स्थानका केही सरसामानहरू र सङ्केत दिनलाई तिनको स्वामित्वमा तुरहीहरूसहित हरेक कुलबाट एक-एक हजार जना मानिसलाई युद्ध गर्न पठाए । परमप्रभुले मोशालाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ

7 They warred against Midian, as the LORD commanded Moses; and they killed every male.

तिनीहरूले मिद्यनीहरूसँग लडे ।

8 They killed the kings of Midian with the rest of their slain: Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian: Balaam also the son of Beor they killed with the sword.

तिनीहरूले सबै मानिसलाई मारे । तिनीहरूले बाँकी मृतकहरूसहित मिद्यानका पाँच जना राजा एवी, रेकेम, सूर, हूर र रेबालाई मारे ।

9 The children of Israel took captive the women of Midian and their little ones; and all their livestock, and all their flocks, and all their goods, they took for a prey.

इस्राएलका फौजले मिद्यानका महिलाहरू, तिनीहरूका बालबच्‍चाहरू, तिनीहरूका सबै गाईवस्तु, तिनीहरूका सबै भेडाबाख्रा र तिनीहरूका सबै मालसामान लगे । तिनीहरूले यिनीहरूलाई लुटको रूपमा लिए ।

10 All their cities in the places in which they lived, and all their encampments, they burnt with fire.

तिनीहरूले उनीहरूका सबै सहर जलाइदिए, जहाँ उनीहरू बसेका थिए र उनीहरूका छाउनीहरू थिए ।

11 They took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of man and of animal.

तिनीहरूले मानिसहरू र पशुहरू दुवैलाई लुटको माल र कैदीको रूपमा लिए ।

12 They brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of the children of Israel, to the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by the Jordan at Jericho.

तिनीहरूले कैदीहरूलाई, लुटका मालहरू र कब्जा गरेका सामानहरू मोशा, पुजारी एलाजार र इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका समुदायकहाँ ल्याए । तिनीहरूले यिनीहरूलाई मोआबको मैदानमा यरीहो नजिक यर्दनको किनारमा ल्याए ।

13 Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the congregation, went forth to meet them outside of the camp.

मोशा, पुजारी एलाजार र समुदायका सबै अगुवा तिनीहरूलाई भेट्न छाउनी बाहिर गए ।

14 Moses was angry with the officers of the army, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds, who came from the service of the war.

तर मोशा लडाइँबाट आएका फौजका अधिकृतहरू, हजार जनाको सेनापति र सय जनाको कप्‍तानहरूसँग रिसाए ।

15 Moses said to them, "Have you saved all the women alive?

मोशाले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “के तिमीहरूले यी सबै महिलालाई जीवितै राखेको?

16 Look, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and so the plague was among the congregation of the LORD.

हेर, यिनै महिलाहरूले परमप्रभुका समुदायमाझ विपत्ति फैलिँदा बालामको सल्लाहमा पोरको विषयमा परमप्रभु विरुद्ध पाप गर्न लगाएका थिए ।

17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known man by lying with him.

अब सबै स-साना पुरुषहरूलाई मार् र पुरुषसँग सहवास गरेका सबै महिलालाई पनि मार ।

18 But all the girls, who have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.

तर पुरुषसँग सहवास नगरेका सबै जवान महिलालाई आफ्नो निम्ति लेओ ।

19 "Encamp outside of the camp seven days: whoever has killed any person, and whoever has touched any slain, purify yourselves on the third day and on the seventh day, you and your captives.

तिमीहरू सात दिनसम्म इस्राएलको छाउनीबाहिर छाउनीमा बस्‍नुपर्छ । कसैलाई मारेका र मुर्दालाई छोएका तिमीहरू सबैले तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूका कैदीहरूसहित तेस्रो र सातौँ दिनमा आफैलाई शुद्ध पार्नुपर्छ ।

20 As to every garment, and all that is made of skin, and all work of goats' hair, and all things made of wood, you shall purify yourselves."

तिमीहरूले हरेक पोशाक र पशुका छाला, बाख्राको रौँ र काठले बनेका सबै मालसामानलाई शुद्ध पार्नुपर्छ ।”

21 Eleazar the priest said to the men of war who went to the battle, "This is the statute of the law which the LORD has commanded Moses:

पुजारी एलाजारले युद्धमा गएका सिपाहीहरूलाई भने, “परमप्रभुले मोशालाई दिनुभएको धर्म-विधि यही होः

22 however the gold, and the silver, the bronze, the iron, the tin, and the lead,

सुन, चाँदी, काँसा, फलाम, टिन र सिसा,

23 everything that may withstand the fire, you shall make to go through the fire, and it shall be clean; nevertheless it shall be purified with the water for impurity: and all that doesn't withstand the fire you shall make to go through the water.

र आगोले नजल्ने सबै थोकलाई तिमीहरूले आगोमा पोल्नुपर्छ र यो शुद्ध हुने छ । त्यसपछि तिमीहरूले यिनीहरूलाई शुद्ध पार्ने पानीले शुद्ध पार्नुपर्छ । जुन कुरालाई आगोमा जलाउन मिल्दैन, त्यसलाई तिमीहरूले पानीले शुद्ध पार्नुपर्छ ।

24 You shall wash your clothes on the seventh day, and you shall be clean; and afterward you shall come into the camp."

तिमीहरूले सातौँ दिनमा तिमीहरूका लुगा धुनुपर्छ र तिमीहरू शुद्ध हुने छौ । त्यसपछि तिमीहरू इस्राएलको छाउनीभित्र आउन सक्छौ ।

25 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

त्यसपछि परमप्रभुले मोशालाई भन्‍नुभयो,

26 "Take the sum of the prey that was taken, both of man and of animal, you, and Eleazar the priest, and the heads of the ancestral houses of the congregation;

“मानिस र पशुहरू दुवै लुटका मालहरूको रूपमा गन्ती गर् । तँ, पुजारी एलाजार र समुदायका कुल-कुलका अगुवाहरूले लुटका मालहरूलाई

27 and divide the prey into two parts: between the men skilled in war, who went out to battle, and all the congregation.

दुई भाग गर्नुपर्छ । यसलाई लडाइँमा जाने सिपाहीहरू र सबै बाँकी समुदायबिच बाँड् ।

28 Levy a tribute to the LORD of the men of war who went out to battle: one soul of five hundred; of the persons, of the cattle, of the donkeys, and of the flocks.

त्यसपछि लडाइँमा गएका सिपाहीहरूबाट मेरो निम्ति कर लिनू । यो कर मानिस, गाईवस्तु, गधा, भेडा वा बाख्राहरू जे भए पनि हरेक पाँच सयमा एउटा हुनुपर्छ ।

29 Take it of their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest, for the LORD's wave offering.

यो कर तिनीहरूका आधा अंशबाट लिनू र यसलाई मेरो निम्ति चढाउन पुजारी एलाजारलाई दिनू ।

30 Of the children of Israel's half, you shall take one drawn out of every fifty, of the persons, of the cattle, of the donkeys, and of the flocks, of all the livestock, and give them to the Levites, who perform the duty of the tabernacle of the LORD."

साथै, इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका आधा भागबाट, मानिस, गाईवस्तु, गधा, भेडा र बाख्राबाट तैँले हरेक पचास वटामा एउटा लिनू । यिनीहरूलाई मेरो पवित्र वासस्थानको हेरचाह गर्ने लेवीहरूलाई दिनू ।”

31 Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.

त्यसैले मोशा र पुजारी एलाजारले परमप्रभुले मोशालाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएबमोजिम गरे ।

32 Now the prey, over and above the booty which the men of war took, was six hundred seventy-five thousand sheep,

सिपाहीहरूले लिएका लुटबाट बाँकी रहेका ६,७५,००० भेडा,

33 and seventy-two thousand head of cattle,

सत्तरी हजार गोरु,

34 and sixty-one thousand donkeys,

एकसट्ठी हजार गधा,

35 and thirty-two thousand persons in all, of the women who had not known man by lying with him.

र पुरुषसँग कहिल्यै सहवास नगरेका तिस हजार महिला थिए ।

36 The half, which was the portion of those who went out to war, was in number three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep:

सिपाहीहरूका निम्ति राखिएका भेडाहरू ३,३७, ००० थियो । भेडाहरूबाट

37 and the LORD's tribute of the sheep was six hundred seventy-five.

परमप्रभुको भाग ६७५ थियो ।

38 The cattle were thirty-six thousand; of which the LORD's tribute was seventy-two.

गोरुहरू छत्तिस हजार थिए, जसबाट परमप्रभुको भागमा बहत्तरवटा थिए ।

39 The donkeys were thirty thousand five hundred; of which the LORD's tribute was sixty-one.

गधाहरू ३०,५०० थिए, जसबाट परमप्रभुको भाग एकसट्ठीवटा थिए ।

40 The persons were sixteen thousand; of whom the LORD's tribute was thirty-two persons.

सोह्र हजार महिला थिए, जसबाट परमप्रभुको भाग बत्तिस जना थिए ।

41 Moses gave the tribute, which was the LORD's wave offering, to Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.

परमप्रभुलाई चढाउने बलि हुनुपर्ने कर मोशाले लिए । परमप्रभुले मोशालाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ तिनले यसलाई पुजारी एलाजारलाई दिए ।

42 Of the children of Israel's half, which Moses divided off from the men who warred

युद्धमा गएका सिपाहीहरूबाट मोशाले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका आधा भागको सन्दर्भमा

43 (now the congregation's half was three hundred thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep,

समुदायको आधा भाग ३,३७,५०० भेडा,

44 and thirty-six thousand head of cattle,

तिस हजार गोरु,

45 and thirty thousand five hundred donkeys,

३०,५०० गधा,

46 and sixteen thousand persons),

र सोह्र हजार महिला थिए ।

47 even of the children of Israel's half, Moses took one drawn out of every fifty, both of man and of animal, and gave them to the Levites, who performed the duty of the tabernacle of the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.

इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका आधा भागबाट मोशाले पशु र मानिस दुवैबाट हरेक पचास वटाबाट एउटा लिए । परमप्रभुले मोशालाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएबमोजिम तिनले तिनीहरूलाई परमप्रभुको पवित्र वासस्थानको हेरचाह गर्ने लेवीहरूलाई दिए ।

48 The officers who were over the thousands of the army, the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, came near to Moses;

फौजका अधिकृतहरू, हजारका सेनापतिहरू र पचास जनाका कप्‍तानहरू मोशाकहाँ आए ।

49 and they said to Moses, "Your servants have taken the sum of the men of war who are under our command, and there lacks not one man of us.

तिनीहरूले तिनलाई भने, “तपाईंका दासहरूले हाम्रो स्वामित्वमा भएका सिपाहीहरूको गन्ती गरेका छन् र एक जना पनि हराएको छैन ।

50 We have brought the LORD's offering, what every man has gotten, of jewels of gold, armlets, and bracelets, signet rings, earrings, and necklaces, to make atonement for our souls before the LORD."

हामी हरेकले पाएका सुनका गहनाहरू, बाजू, बाला, छाप औँठी, कुण्डल र सिक्रीहरू परमप्रभुको सामु हाम्रो प्रायश्‍चित्त गर्नको निम्ति परमप्रभुको भेटी ल्याएका छौँ ।”

51 Moses and Eleazar the priest took their gold, even all worked jewels.

मोशा र पुजारी एलाजारले सुन र सबै कलात्मक सरसामान तिनीहरूबाट ग्रहण गरे ।

52 All the gold of the wave offering that they offered up to the LORD, of the captains of thousands, and of the captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred fifty shekels.

तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुलाई दिएका, हजारका सेनापतिहरू र सय जनाका कप्‍तानहरूबाट आएका सुनका भेटीहरूको तौल एक सय नब्बे किलोग्राम थियो ।

53 (The men of war had taken booty, every man for himself.)

हरेक सिपाहीले आ-आफ्नो निम्ति लुटका माल लिएका थिए ।

54 Moses and Eleazar the priest took the gold of the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the Tent of Meeting, for a memorial for the children of Israel before the LORD.

मोशा र पुजारी एलाजारले हजारका सेनापतिहरू र सयका कप्‍तानहरूबाट सुन लिए । तिनीहरूले यसलाई परमप्रभुको निम्ति इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको याद दिलाउने चिनोको रूपमा भेट हुने पालभित्र लगे ।
